---- One little baby mod for me this morning. Fine tuning the stance...[/QUOTE] --- Thats cool. So what does that make your total offset?
Justa Well I painted my justa hood and bumper this weekend. Turned out nice. Not bad for painting in a dark cold cave.lol.
I guess technically the offset is reduced for a positive offset wheel since the spacer moves the wheel centerline outward toward the hub and makes the measurement between the two smaller. So it's ET45 for the RSe05s minus 5 = 40 mm. I figured 5 mm was conservative enough to avoid undue wheel bearing stress and play nice with the NM Alpha springs.
Man that is nice. It looks like they are farther out than mine. My wheels have a 35 offset. We had talked about them at the Spring has Sprung meet. I was worrried they was going to rub, so far they are ok. I will try and take a pic later so we can compare them.

Did a "un-mod" yesterday. Brought back COOP's natural color on top: I started with this. I when around the car to raised the edges and then started peeling. And here is the roof completely peeled and back to its original self. (The rear spoiler is still off in this photo) This didn't take too terribly long. Later I did the chrome, that was more taxing...
